Calendar-powered countdowns

It feels good to look forward to stuff

I truly believe that on the road to happiness is being able to look forward to things in your life. Something in the next few days, weeks, months etc. I made Looking Forward to focus on those things, and get that reminder when you need it.

Let's talk features

We Like Features

I showed the app to a few people, and they were like, you need a couple options here. So now there are themes, better widgets, and a tiny calendar shortcut for pinning the stuff you care about.

Calendar Choice

Choose between Apple Calendar or Google Calendar

Auto-pin with @lf screen in the Looking Forward iOS app

Auto-pin with @lf

Add @lf to a calendar event description and Looking Forward pins it for you.

A widget for instant anticipation

Recent pins can live on your Home Screen so you can always see what's coming up.

New Forest theme

Go calmer with deep greens, softer contrast, and a little outdoorsy countdown energy.

New Space theme

Switch into a darker cosmic look when your future plans deserve orbit-level drama.

Widget themes too

Match your Home Screen widget to the app theme so the whole thing feels yours.

Actual iOS screens

Because of course

Everyone loves screenshots, so here you go. The new Forest and Space looks are in there too.
